Go!Bridge IP Communicator
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
TheGo!Bridge™IPCommunicator(2GIG‐BRDG1‐900)provides
Internetconnectivitybetweenthemonitoringservice’sCentralStation
andtheGo!Control®Panel(requiresthe900MHzTransceiver(2GIG‐
XCVR)).
Itsupportsautomaticfirmwareupdates,providesinteractivesecurity
services,andincreasessupervisionusingsignal‐forwardingtothe
CentralStation.ForwirelesscommunicationwiththeControlPanel,
the900MHzTransceiverModule(2GIG‐XCVR)mustbeinstalledinthe
panel.ForInternetaccess,theGo!Bridgemustbeconnectedtothe
localnetworkrouterusinganEthernetcable(notprovided).
